Patient activity signature analysis
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for analyzing a condition of a patient:
- generating, by an electronic computer processor, at least one progressively established patient activity signature in connection with previously observed activity or movement of a patient derived at least in part from at least one electronic sensor;
collecting, by the processor, current movement data associated with the patient;
comparing, by the processor, the current patient movement data against the at least one progressively established patient activity signature; and
,generating, by the processor, at least one notification in association with comparing the current patient movement data to the at least one progressively established patient activity signature.

Abstract
Tools, strategies, and techniques are provided for remote, early detection of patient health condition based on deviations from established patterns of patient movement or other activity. Once established, a patient activity signature can be compared to observed patient behavior to detect unacceptable or unexpected deviations from the activity signature. Deviation from a patient movement signature can be detected and can cause an alert or other notification to be generated or communicated to a physician, for example, or other appropriate health care providers.

13. A system for analyzing a condition of a patient:
-
an electronic computer processor programmed for executing instructions associated with at least one module; a data analytics module programmed for generating at least one progressively established patient activity signature in connection with previously observed activity or movement of a patient derived at least in part from at least one electronic sensor; a patient activity monitoring module programmed for collecting current movement data associated with the patient; wherein the data analytics module is programmed for comparing the current patient movement data against the at least one progressively established patient activity signature; and
